Society Exposed; Crimes against humanity

How does our society react to senseless crimes, murders perpetuated by men who are oblivious to human suffering?

Anders Behring Breivik is currently in court, unmoved by a tape of victims' screams. He killed 77 people and had no pity on those who pleaded for life.Such barbarism in our midst by a brainwashed individual who believes that his actions were right, when quite clearly they are wrong.

The former Liberian leader Charles Taylor who incited atrocities in neighboring Sierra Leone, which led to the death of 250,000 people.

........and so many more..........

What is happening to the society we live in, and how can we make things better so these types of atrocities do not happen anymore?
